- Baz Luhrmann is a true visionary. I just saw his most recent works art the hong Kong art fair. I saw his work "The creek 1977" and the portrait of Buchchan. The booth was one of the most popular at the fair. Unfortunatley I missed out on seeing him speak but it was great to meet Vincent while I was at the Buchchan booth. There are some photos on his site http://www.vincentfantauzzo.com/2010/06/04/the-sovereign-art-foundation-stand-at-art-hk-10/
